"Bits And Pieces Batter": Former South Africa Skipper Fumes At India's Batting Order In Second T20I

After scoring 211 in the first T20I, Team India did not have a great day at the office in the second T20I as the hosts only posted 148/6 in 20 overs against South Africa in Cuttack. This total did not prove to be enough as South Africa chased it down with four wickets in hand and 10 balls to spare. Eyebrows were raised when Axar Patel was sent ahead of Dinesh Karthik and the move did not pay off as the left-hander departed after scoring 10 off 11 balls while Karthik remained unbeaten on 30.
